OAKLAND — Years after he was sent to prison in a federal gun case, a San Francisco rapper is back in legal hot water over allegations he joined a robbery crew and trafficked a teen girl.
Albert Collins Jr., 29, who raps under the stage name A.B. Milli, has been charged in connection with a string of armed robberies around Oakland, after police identified his Dodge Charger as the vehicle used by the suspects. When Oakland cops surveilled him in Vallejo, they reportedly witnessed a 17-year-old girl walk away from a high-prostitution area and get into Collins’ car, according to court records.
The girl told police that Collins had trafficked her in Vallejo, San Francisco and Oakland, and that she turned over the proceeds to him. She said that he helped her book hotels because she was underage, authorities allege.
After Collins was arrested, he allegedly called his girlfriend, 34-year-old Caprecia Zayas, and discussed ways they could prevent the girl from continuing to cooperate with police. This led to an additional felony case against both Collis and Zayas, on charges of dissuading a witness, court records show.
Collins is set to be arraigned in the robbery case on May 29, and is being held without bail, records show.
In 2022, Collins received a 14-month federal prison sentence after pleading guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm, after an arrest in San Francisco. His defense lawyer argued for leniency, citing details of Collins’ tragic upbringing — his mother was arrested on suspicion of murder, and his father was gunned down two years later, for instance.
Collins’ music has seeped into other cases. Prosecutors in Contra Costa allege that a diss track recorded by him and two others led to a freeway shooting that killed 25-year-old Shanique Marie, a mother of four, in Pittsburg.
One of the suspects, Mario “NastyO” Pitteard, had been accused on the song of cooperating with police in a burglary case. The intended target of the shooting wasn’t Marie, but a man in the car who was friends with Collins and another of the two rappers.
